HT5815 Updated to 10.8.5 and now I cannot control my macbook pro with the track pad. Any solutions?

Like any other time, the App Store said there was a new update and asked if I wanted to update now. I did. Unfortunately, the update, after rebooting, has rendered the system unusable. I can no longer control the system with the track pad. The arrow is moving itself around the screen and the Launchpad periodically opens itself and gets locked in that mode. I've rebooted, launched in safe mode, and zapped PRAM. Nothing has changed. I experienced the same thing in safe mode, no change. Anyone else having these problems? Not sure what to do next.

There are several possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps until it's resolved.
1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable.
2. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check for unknown or forgotten input devices. Disconnect any USB input devices that you aren't using.
3. Boot in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you reboot as usual, stop here and post your results. If you can't boot in safe mode, do the same. If you booted in safe mode and there was no change, go on to the next step.
4. Reset the System Management Controller.
5. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
6. A swollen battery in a MacBook Pro or Air can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
7. Some people have reported that they fixed a malfunctioning trackpad by pressing down on all four corners at once. I can't confirm, but it does no harm to try.
8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

Hello My macbook pro has suddenly become very slow,any solution?

I had no problems with my Macbook pro, since yesterday it became very slow ,i tried to close and remove many pages as possible,tried to update ,but still slow.
Any thing else to do?

Hey Tafaya,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing performance issues with your MacBook Pro. The following resource may provide a solution, while it is titled for OS X Mavericks - the same steps apply for Yosemite:

HT201177 macbook pro cannot play online video,requires adobe flash player but i did install and it won't works

i need help!!!!!!!

There is some movie stuff online that is NOT Flash. One of the most annoying is Windows media.
Microsoft convinced lots of folks to produce their conntent in Windows media. Then they abandoned the Mac verison of the Player.
But they did provide a substitute: Flip4Mac:
Windows Media on a Mac? -- No problem! -- The official Windows media Player on the Mac
(All you need is the free download, despite their attempts to Upsell the for-pay tools.)

Macbook pro continuously black screening and rebooting-any solutions?

Ever since upgrading OS to Mountain Lion there have been numerous times when waking the Macbook, it goes to black screen and reboots. Several times it has rebooted then immediately shut down and rebooted again. I am also running Paralles 9 which I needed to install after upgrading to the OS 6 operating system. Has anyone else had this problem and is there an easy fix?

You might try this:
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

I cannot play videos on my macbook pro laptop.

since my last update (a week ago), I cannot play videos on my macbook pro laptop. I can play youtube vids if I go to the website but I cannot play videos from CNN or any other website where before I could. Any reason?

Me either, since I installed a new operating system on my mac book pro - I followed a suggestion of deleting all Flash Player files through system preferences, closing Safari while I install a new version of Flash, but I got an error message saying 'unable to complete installation' - problem remains. Any help, peeps?

My iPod mini, 4gb is hard to get serviced obviously because they dont make them anymore
It is as simple to get it serviced as the day you purchased it.
How is it hard to get it serviced?
How long have you had your iPod?
i get maybe 4-5 hours of battery life, maybe even 6 if im lucky
That is not good but it's not "terrible".
If you've had it less than a year, send it back to Apple to replace the battery.
thought that i might buy an attachment type accesorie that i plug into the usb port on my ipod
It's called a dock connector, not a USB port.
i found a product in the online store, that i guess you place the ipod mini on, and it gives you up to 20 or so more hours of time but then it says that you have to have a firewire port or cable?
What is it? The firewire port is on the computer, not the iPod.
If the original battery is going bad, the first thing to do is get that sorted out.

Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

Cannot load the "new" flash so I can play videos on Facebook via Firefox on OS 10.6.8. Have followed instuctions by after "save file" nothing happens, even after I trash the previous version of flash I have.

I am unable to play videos on Facebook unless I download a "new" flash, which I am unable to do -- following the instructions to trash the previous version included. I'm told to hit "save," but no downloading activity occurs at all. I'm using OS 10.6.8. Any clue what to do?

Hello, it seems that support is not aware of this blog post: http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2013/06/updatingupgrading-to-photoshop-cc-faq.html#video
Adobe decided to limit to Lion, each operating system they support means more quality assurance.
The APIs they used for video is not supported in Snow Leopard (I upgraded just for that)
Adding another one means more quality assurance, tests, detrimental to the new features.
If you are a creative cloud subscriber you can also install Photoshop CS6 that has a video module compatible with 10.6.8

Usually, that's due to a DivX plug-in or Safari extension... start with Safari - Preferences - Extensions & switch them off. If nothing there, see Safari - Help - Installed Plug-ins & note any that are for DivX.
